here's how the new york times starts out. by the way, the new york times and the washington post basically do hit job on rudy giuliani. the raise all kind of questions about the information without pursuing any of it. the biden campaign on wednesday rejected a new york post report that joseph r biden junior had met with an advisor to the ukrainian energy company associated with his son hunter, a claim based on material provided by republican allies of president trump who have tried for months to tarnish mr. biden over his son. what kind of news sentences that question market goes on and later says the report raises a host of unanswered questions beginning with whether the e-mail alluding to a meeting israel so the unanswered question for the new york times is, about the source of the information of rudy giuliani an e-mail, not about what is in the e-mail. it's amazing. what he was specifically referring to when he allegedly thanked hunter biden for the opportunity to meet and spend time with his father, it's also unclear who

york which owns riis' new york photographs. there is a great paradox to riis' photographs. he was a journalist and celebrity. he saved all of the documentation of his career. he wanted to be remembered for posterity. he created scrapbooks, he saved his manuscripts. every scrap of paper. he abandoned his photographs because he did not think they were of any value apart from his words, arguments, articles, and his publications. the way they were discovered is really a fascinating story. riis died in 1914. in the 1940's, a photographer named alexander alland noticed in riis' book that on the title page it says "with illustrations after photographs by the author." he said to himself, where are these photographs? after several years of searching, he tracked down rii'' son and with much coercing, got his son to try to find the pictures which turned out to be in the attic of his family's home in queens, new york, that was about to be torn down. these beautiful enlarged pictures along with excerpts from his writing and established riis

what al smith did in new york and what fdr did in new york. with the way the economy is today and debates over government and smart sizing, smith would lick his lips and say i'd love to go to d.c. and figure this out. as far as mr. smith is concerned, despite his opposition to the new deal and this and that, the catholicism should not enter into the picture. so he would probably sell himself very well today by saying i've done this in new york, i've battled the legislature that's hostile, i know how to get government under control, i know how to get the economy back moving again. i think he would be seen as almost a technocrat. not flashy, but probably someone that would almost be the brain trust kind of guy. >> james in dayton, ohio, good evening. james? >> caller: yes. i was wondering if -- i know that al smith lost the election in 1928. in 1929, of course, wall street collapsed initiating the great depression. i was wondering if he had any party platform which might have contributed to, perhaps, avoiding that -- anything that would check ma

so much so that by 1911 when his party took control of the new york state legislature, the new york legislature was dominated by republicans doing this period, partly because of old political alliances but partly because of gerrymandering, in scandal in 1910, the democrats took over the legislature. in a 1911, murphy sponsored young al smith for majority leader. his best friend, smith's best friend, german immigrant, robert f wagner, for majority leader of the state senate. the tragedy that happened next is well known. in the midst of these two young legislator legislators'session, came the triangle shirtwaist factory fire. a terrible inferno that engulfed a sweatshop on the lower east side and killed 146 workers, most of them young jewish immigrant girls and young women from the lower east side, many of whom had protested against unfair labor conditions just a couple of years earlier. smith and wagner, pictured here in a photograph taken years later formed an investigative commission and brought in nonpartisan reformers to be expert witnesses.

he said retail in new york is dead. he he said brick and mortar in new york is dead.oot traffic, they're not going to be able to survive. what's your take on brick and mortar at this point? i mean, clearly many cities are on lockdown, and if we see a second wave in the next several weeks, in the fall, that's only going to worsen. so what's your take now? do you want to adapt even further and keep ramping up the online portion of the business knowing that the foot traffic is not likely to come back anytime soon? >> i think people exaggerate the current trends too much. is new york going to come back? i don't know. my entire lifetime i've heard new york was going to die many times -- [laughter] and new york's a pretty resill cent place. people come back -- resilient place. is it going to come back next week? probably not. so we're going to have to get through it, make people feel safe again. but i do think that's going to happen in the next year, and people are going to begin to return from the suburbs, so to speak, to new york. it's still got a high quality of life, bu

over the last two days, new york and new jersey have recorded their highest number of cases since may. new york city is close to hitting a threshold that would trigger citywide restrictions. a lockdown of schools, nonessential businesses, and houses of worship now in effect in several neighborhoods, sparking protests and lawsuit. in new jersey, the rate of infection has almost doubled since labor day. >> we did expect to see an increase starting in the fall, not necessarily this early. >> reporter: dr. shereef elnhal at university hospital in newark is stockpiling 90 days worth of p.p.e. and securing more labs for covid testing will you have enough backup front line workers? ur staffing is one of our biggest concerns, meg. remember when this virus hit new york and new jersey we were blessed to get front-line workers from other parts of the country. we can't necessarily expect that this time because everybody has the covid virus spreading in their communities now. >> reporter: the midwest, meanwhile, has reported the most new cases in a single day since the pandemic began. and in the n

new york lost 19%. in retail, the country lost 5%. new york lost 13%.n business, the country lost 7%. new york lost almost 14%. and hotel and restaurant, u.s. lost 22%, and new york lost 49% of the jobs. why is new york doing so much worse than the rest of america? is it just about density? >> no, stephanie, it's about facts and reality. remember what happened here. new york had many more cases. new york was the hardest hit because the fundamental, the first government error was we had a white house saying china virus, china virus, china virus. it wasn't the china virus. it was the european virus. the virus didn't come to the united states from china. it came from europe. it migrated from china to europe, italy, france, spain, and it came here from europe. the president did the china travel ban january 29th. the virus was gone from china. it was in europe, and they didn't do a european ban until march 16th. that means the virus was coming here on planes from europe for three months. most of those flights were landing on the east coast. many of them in n

or at least major parts of new york?olf. what's an issue here is a rising infection rate in certain neighborhoods in brooklyn and queens. what the mayor is proposing is basically a neighborhood by neighborhood battle against the rising numbers. in nine neighborhoods he's proposing a return to the kind of lockdowns we saw in all of new york in april, closing of schools, non-essential businesses. and 11 other neighborhoods near those 9 neighborhoods, he's proposing new restrictions on things like gyms and outdoor dining, which just reopened here. new york has been enjoying a lot of good days when it comes to the pandemic over the past few months. but mayor de blasio made it clear that today is not one of those days. >> today, unfortunately, is not a day for celebration. today is a more difficult day, and i'm going to be giving an update that gives me no join at all. in fact, it pains me to be putting forward this approach that we'll need. but in some part of our city, in brooklyn and queens, we're having an extraordinary p
